A MAN ABOUT TOWN.

One of the tricks by which the circus
swindled the people was for the ticket agent
TO insist that twenty was one and re-
fuse TO give any change (thls, we under
stand, was successfully operated on one AL.
bany gentleman,) or give three quarters and
change for twenty, palning the iives and
substituting the quarters, The villainous
thief who seld tickets tried this three times
on a farmer living few miles from Albany,
each time being detected, and, ther giving
him his change in silver tried to cheat him
out of dollar. A worse aggregation of
monstrous, gloriously stupendous, phenom.
inally pampered, absorbingly sneaking, pro-
dlgiously overshadowing cutthroats and
thieves never polluted eur indescribably
beautiful city. They ohliterated all past
records. The M, A. r. feels better now,

Tho Influence of LAdies.

The wholesome IL fuence of the pres
ence Of ladies Is not more forcibly felt
any where than In the workshop. Hence
the prejudics against their em ployment
in any pursuit In which they are com
petent to perform the labor required, is
rapidly disappearing. Ladies have
long been employed in setting ty pc, hut
until recently they have been exclude
from the larse newspaper offices. That
exclusion, however, is not to continue,
and in the future the female will take
her place beside the male compositor
and contest for superiority OF work 10 an

innovation Is the Philadelphia Ledger

After tho Boodlers.

The City Counoil took two important
steps In the direction OF reform last
night. Ex.Clerk OF the Market Writ,
an active political heeler, is to be inter-
viewed and asked why he holds on to
several hundred dollars Of money De-
longing to the city more than Q year
after his term Of off ,e expired. II he
cannot give . satisfactory explanation
his suretles are to be asked to answer
in hard cash for him. Mr.. Writ has
him self to blame for the predicAment
In which he Is placed. He no doubt
has heard the mutterlng thunder Of the
storm that has now overtaken him, and
then and not now was the time to place
himself beyond the reach Of the aveng-
Ing fire By settling up squarely and
honestly.
Another reform shot struck in the
direction OF little case Of land grab.
bling by another ex.offi ,iAl Of the City
Council, and although 1t made thai
official very angry 1t may be the means
OF checking the disposition to consinu.

Mangled by an Express.

READING, Pa, July 2S.-One of the
most appalling accidents that ever took
place in this vicinity occurred on the
Pennsylvania Railroad at Ridgewood
station, two miles from here, this morn
ing. The eight o'clock down express,
which makes tripl between Reading and
Philadelphia In one hour and forty min
utes, ran into covered spring wagon
containing pleasure party and killed
four of the occupants.
A boy named John Wunnemacher, ,ag ed
thirteen, of this city, was driving, and
owing to the wagon reing covered, he did
not see the approaching train, which
dashed into the party, who were hurled
down deep embankment, where the r
bodies were picked up
The killed are Miss Amanda Fritz aged
thirty. five, daughter of Elias Fritz, Sr.,
a wealthy farmer of Cumru township,
this county; Hettie Fritz, aged thirty-two,
wife OF Elias Fritz, Jr., and her two chill
dren, Charles, aged three months, and
Mervine, aged eighteen months.
The boy Wunnemacher was seriously
injured about the head and is not ex.
pected to recover. The bodies were
brought to this city. The accident
caused q eat shock.
The train left Reading at eight o'clock
and was to run through to Birdsboro
without stopping Mr.. Eltz, passenger,
says that when the train was approaching
Rjdgewood he heard the engine give q
loud, shrill whistle, and instantly the
brakes were put on, which SO suddenly
stopped the momentum of the train that
the passengers were thrown forward from
their seats
81 looked out OF the window to the
left" said Mr.. Eltz, "and saw the body
OF a woman being hurled down a banh
some ten or fifteen feet deep. This was
come sixty feet from where the engine
struck them. The train then stopped,

of which were sticking in the COW catcher.
The dead body OF the youngest child was
taken from the wreck ON the cow-catcher
by the fireman. We then walked back
and saw the woman's body that ! first
saw hurled down the bank. On the op
posite side down the bank fifteen feet !
saw the dead bodies of Mrs. Fritz and
her eighteen-monthso old child. They
were lying pretty close together. helped
to carry up the body OF Mrs. Fri z, and
other passengers assisted with the ether
bodies "
